Certification Program
The Certificate in Biblical Studies focuses on the treatment of the Old and New Testaments with
an emphasis on biblical interpretation. This certificate allows students to quickly and easily
obtain practical knowledge of Bible survey, doctrine, methods of Bible study, evangelism, and
discipleship. The Certificate Program is a total of three years of intense biblical instruction in
which students can expect their faith and understanding of God's word to be established.
